I completely agree!
I am sure if Hyndai releases a Verna Sports @130 bhp (Pete's equivalent) at 50K more - there will be definitely a lot of takers for it - and Hyndai gets a nice profit too (in bulk this would hardly cost 12K+). Same goes for Innova, Magnum and Octy - who can easily charge a 50K premium for a sport diesel.
So please don't tell me its money - I am not that easily convinced! I suspect that has to do with longevity of the engine.
